MARINATED GRILLED LAMB CHOPS
10 lamb rib chops
½ cup olive oil
3 tbs lemon juice
2 tbs white wine vinegar
3 tbs mint jelly
Handful mixed fresh herbs, oregano and rosemary
2 tbs fresh mint (if available)
1 tbs Dijon mustard
2 tsps paprika
1 tbs Ina Paarman lemon and rosemary seasoning
Coarse salt and pepper
Blend all the ingredients together in a liquidiser until herbs are chopped.
Pour over chops and marinate for at least a few hours if possible.
Preheat a grilling pan to very high heat. Grill the chops until crispy and cooked through, brushing all the time with the marinade.
Serve with potato wedges and a salad.
TWICE BAKED SQUASHED POTATOES
4-5 potatoes
olive oil
fresh rosemary, chopped
coarse salt
black pepper
Place baking rack in the upper part of the oven. Preheat oven to 200°C.
Boil potatoes whole with their skin on. When they are firm, but soft enough to mash, use a potato masher to squash the potatoes.
Place them on a lined baking tray. Drizzle them with olive oil, and season with plenty of coarse salt and pepper. Sprinkle with freshly chopped rosemary. Bake until golden and crispy – at least 40-50 minutes.
POACHED PEACHES
12 yellow cling peaches, peeled
1 litre (4 cups) peach juice
Boil the peeled peaches in the juice for about 15-20 minutes or until they are soft.
Remove them from the juice and cool them. Then place back in the juice when cool.
CHEF’S TIP: Peaches can be poached several days before and refrigerated until ready to serve.
